Hello Larry Heath,

ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/rawhide/s390/ contains new images
with:
- kernel-2.4.9-31.1
        - GPL lcs driver for a more Open Source platform thanks to IBM
        - current s390 patches
        - would support installation of OCO modules from a second initrd
- new installation support with a current anaconda
- most updates for 7.2 are already included

So this includes all stable updates as well as some goodies, but please
keep in mind that this is a totally unsupported "rawhide" version that
might just disappear, change unstable, break your hardware etc.

Official updates for Red Hat Linux 7.2 mostly done, only the kernel and
the new install support need some more time. The above rawhide version
should ensure it is tested within enough different setups.

Install "rawhide" and let us know if anything is not working.

Thanks,

Florian La Roche

P.S.: The cvs version of hercules also supports LCS...
